BMO and Football decide upon a deal, but one of them cannot keep up their end of the bargain.

Tropes:

  • Big "WHY?!": NEPTR after Football smashes his door window.
  • Bottle Episode: Takes place entirely in the fort with only Finn, Jake, NEPTR, BMO and Football.
  • Dunce Cap: The traffic cone BMO/Football is forced to wear after smashing the mirror serves this purpose.
  • The Man in the Mirror Talks Back: BMO threatens Football from the reflections.
  • Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: It's not clear if Football is actually real or BMO is a bit crazy; there is evidence to suggest either way.
  • Noodle Implements: The treehouse is filled to the brim with grapefruits for unexplained reasons.
  • Portal Network: BMO is able to follow Football around through various reflective surfaces in the treehouse.
  • Portal Pool: BMO and Football finally switch back when Football falls into the pond in front of Finn and Jake's home. Football likes it better than the bathroom mirror.
  • Rage Against the Reflection: When BMO goes after her, Football starts smashing all the reflective surfaces in the house. Including NEPTR's body.
  • Split Personality: Implied, but not explicit; it's equally likely Football was Real After All.
  • Toilet Humor: When Finn finds Football smashing the bathroom mirror:
    Finn: Hey, Jake, BMO went all hog-wild in the bathroom.
    Jake: Groooss!
    Jake: Oh.
  • Unusual Euphemism: BMO threatens Football with being "put in the dirt hole".
  • Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Finn and Jake mostly take BMO/Football's antics in stride. It's implied that BMO does things like this all the time and they're just humoring him.
